This is really, really cool! I've been trying to get a co-op/internship in the Boston area for over a year now, but to no avail. You live there, right?
I do! What kind of internship are you looking for?
Chemical/Chemical Engineering/Environmental. There's tons of companies that I've reached out to, but my college's schedule is...odd (which is changing soon). Or that they've found a better fit. I also know that there are tons of pharmaceutical and energy storage companies in that area. What's it like living over there?
I love Boston. I assume you're under 30 when I say this, but it's kind of just a giant playground for 20-somethings. A huge percentage of the population is young, you're surrounded by good libraries and schools, so if that's your thing you're in a great place. On a less "hubski" but more realistic side of things, there's also a pretty good nightlife, and due to the proliferation of colleges, I'm going to put the emphasis (for all genders) on the pretty side of it. Pretty boys, pretty girls, and everything in between. I am a big fan of Boston night life as well. If you move here, lemme know! We'll get drinks! Or if you're in town we could get a meal and see eachother's faces and both leave thinking, "Well, didn't expect that!"
Yep, I'm in the early 20's. That's what everybody that I know that way says. It seems like such an optimal place to live. Unfortunately it looks like I'm going to be in PA for ~6 months on a job instead. The thing with Boston that intrigues me is that it seems to have a bit of a European feel to it, oh and all of the great concerts out that way. If I ever get out there I'll be sure to send you a message beforehand.
